The name of the text file containing the Sequence Listing is 860234_407_SEQUENCE_LISTING.txt. The text file is 367 KB, was created on Oct. 6, 2020, and is being submitted electronically via EFS-Web.

BACKGROUND

Fibrosis is the formation of excess fibrous connective tissue or scar tissue in an organ or tissue in a reparative or reactive process. Fibrosis can occur in many tissues within the body, typically as a result of inflammation or damage, which include the lungs, liver, heart, and brain. Scar tissue blocks arteries, immobilizes joints and damages internal organs, wreaking havoc on the body's ability to maintain vital functions. Every year, millions of people are hospitalized due to the damaging effects of fibrosis. However, current therapeutics for treating fibrotic diseases are lacking or have drawbacks. Thus, there remains a considerable need for alternative or improved treatments for fibrotic diseases.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Additional aspects and advantages of the present disclosure will become apparent to those skilled in this art from the following detailed description, wherein illustrative aspects of the present disclosure are shown and described. As will be appreciated, the present disclosure is capable of other and different aspects, and its several details are capable of modifications in various respects, all without departing from the disclosure. Accordingly, the descriptions are to be regarded as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.

Where values are described as ranges, it will be understood that such disclosure includes the disclosure of all possible sub-ranges within such ranges, as well as specific numerical values that fall within such ranges irrespective of whether a specific numerical value or specific sub-range is expressly stated.

Activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5), which is also commonly known as transforming growth factor beta receptor 1 (TGFβR1), is a serine/threonine kinase transmembrane receptor. It is a part of the TGFβ signaling pathway and is involved in signal transduction from the cell surface to the cytoplasm. The TGFβ signaling pathway regulates gene expression of genes involved in cellular processes such as differentiation, apoptosis, wound healing, and cell growth. In the absence of TGFβ ligands, ALK5 remains a homodimeric cell surface receptor. However, ligand binding to type II TGFβ receptor (TGFβR2) induces the formation of the TGFβR1/TGFβR2 complex, which leads to phosphorylation of Mothers Against Decapentaplegic homolog 2 (Smad2) and Mothers Against Decapentaplegic homolog 3 (Smad3) and subsequent modulation of a number of downstream signaling targets involved in the regulation of gene expression.

ALK5 inhibitors and conjugates thereof may be useful for treatment and/or prevention, e.g., vaccination, of cancer, autoimmune diseases, inflammation, fibrosis, sepsis, allergy, asthma, graft rejection, graft-versus-host disease, immunodeficiencies, and infectious diseases.

In some aspects, an ALK5 inhibitor has an IC50 value of ranging from about 0.1 nM to about 1000 nM, from about 0.1 nm to about 100 nM, or from about 0.1 nM to about 80 nM in an ALK5 enzyme inhibition assay and/or in a TGFβR1 reporter assay. Exemplary ALK5 enzyme inhibition and TGFβR1 reporter assays are as set forth in the examples section.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that substituents can themselves be substituted, if appropriate. Unless specifically stated as “unsubstituted,” references to chemical moieties herein are understood to include substituted variants. For example, reference to a “heteroaryl” group or moiety implicitly includes both substituted and unsubstituted variants.

Chemical entities having carbon-carbon double bonds or carbon-nitrogen double bonds may exist in Z- or E-form (or cis- or trans-form). Furthermore, some chemical entities may exist in various tautomeric forms. Unless otherwise specified, chemical entities described herein are intended to include all Z-, E- and tautomeric forms as well.

A “tautomer” refers to a molecule wherein a proton shift from one atom of a molecule to another atom of the same molecule is possible. The compounds presented herein, in certain embodiments, exist as tautomers. In circumstances where tautomerization is possible, a chemical equilibrium of the tautomers will exist. The exact ratio of the tautomers depends on several factors, including physical state, temperature, solvent, and pH. Some examples of tautomeric equilibrium include:

The compounds described herein may in some cases exist as diastereomers, enantiomers, or other stereoisomeric forms. The compounds presented herein include all diastereomeric, enantiomeric, and epimeric forms as well as the appropriate mixtures thereof. Separation of stereoisomers may be performed by chromatography or by forming diastereomers and separating by recrystallization, or chromatography, or any combination thereof. (Jean Jacques, Andre Collet, Samuel H. Wilen, “Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions”, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1981, herein incorporated by reference for this disclosure). Stereoisomers may also be obtained by stereoselective synthesis.

The compounds disclosed herein, in some embodiments, are used in different enriched isotopic forms, e.g., enriched in the content of 2H, 3H, 11C, 13C and/or 14C. In one particular embodiment, the compound is deuterated in at least one position. Such deuterated forms can be made by the procedure described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,846,514 and 6,334,997. As described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,846,514 and 6,334,997, deuteration can improve the metabolic stability and or efficacy, thus increasing the duration of action of drugs.

Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are intended to include compounds which differ only in the presence of one or more isotopically enriched atoms. For example, compounds having the present structures except for the replacement of a hydrogen by a deuterium or tritium, or the replacement of a carbon by 13C- or 14C-enriched carbon are within the scope of the present disclosure.

ASGR (Asialoglycoprotein Receptor) Antibody and Antibody Construct

A conjugate can comprise an antibody construct comprising an asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1) or an asialoglycoprotein receptor 2 (ASGR2) binding domain and an Fc domain. A conjugate as described herein comprises an antibody construct. An antibody construct comprises one or more ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domains and an Fc domain. In some embodiments, an antibody construct comprises an antigen binding domain that specifically binds to ASGR1 and an Fc domain. In some embodiments, an antibody construct comprises an antigen binding domain that specifically binds to ASGR2 and an Fc domain.

An antibody construct can comprise a first antigen binding domain that specifically binds to ASGR1 or ASGR2, a second antigen binding domain that specifically binds to a second antigen, and an Fc domain. In some such embodiments, the antibody construct is a bispecific antibody construct.

A conjugate can comprise an antibody specific for an asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1) or an asialoglycoprotein receptor 2 (ASGR2), such as human ASGR1 or human ASGR2. A conjugate as described herein comprises an antibody. In some embodiments, an antibody construct comprises an antigen binding domain that specifically binds to ASGR1 and a wild-type or a mutated Fc domain. In some embodiments, an antibody construct comprises an antigen binding domain that specifically binds to ASGR2 and a wild-type or a mutated Fc domain.

An antibody or antibody construct of a conjugate of the instant disclosure comprises an antigen binding domain that binds ASGR1 or ASGR2. In a conjugate, an ASGR1 or ASGR2 antibody or antibody construct can be linked to a TGFβR1 inhibitor in such a way that the antibody or antibody construct can still bind to ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively, and the Fc domain of the antibody or antibody construct can still bind to an FcR, resulting in FcR-mediated signaling. In a conjugate, an ASGR1 or ASGR2 antibody or antibody construct can be linked to a TGFβR1 inhibitor in such a way that the linking does not interfere with ability of the ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain of the antibody or antibody construct to bind to ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively, the ability of the Fc domain of the antibody or antibody construct to bind to an FcR, or with FcR-mediated signaling resulting from the Fc domain of the antibody or antibody construct binding to an FcR. In a conjugate, a TGFβR1 inhibitor can be linked to an antibody or antibody construct in such a way the linking does not interfere with the ability of the TGFβR1 inhibitor to bind to its receptor. A conjugate can produce stronger immune stimulation and a greater therapeutic window than components of the conjugate alone.

Affinity can be the strength of the sum total of noncovalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule, for example, an antibody, and the binding partner of the molecule, for example, an antigen. The affinity can also measure the strength of an interaction between an Fc domain of an antibody or antibody construct and the Fc receptor. Unless indicated otherwise, as used herein, “binding affinity” can refer to intrinsic binding affinity which reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen or Fc domain and Fc receptor). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be represented by the dissociation constant (Kd). Affinity can be measured by common methods known in the art, including those described herein. Kd can be measured by any suitable assay. For example, Kd can be measured by a radiolabeled antigen binding assay (RIA). For example, Kd can be measured using surface plasmon resonance assays (e.g., using a BIACORE®-2000 or a BIACORE®-3000). Specific illustrative and exemplary embodiments for measuring binding affinity are described in the following.

In some embodiments, an ASGR1 or ASGR2 antibody or antibody construct provided herein can has a dissociation constant (Kd) of about 1 μM, about 100 nM, about 10 nM, about 5 nM, about 2 nM, about 1 nM, about 0.5 nM, about 0.1 nM, about 0.05 nM, about 0.01 nM, or about 0.001 nM or less (e.g., 10−8 M or less, e.g., from 10−8 M to 10−13 M, e.g., from 10−9 M to 10−13 M) for its target antigen. An affinity matured antigen-binding domain may have one or more alterations in one or more complementarity determining regions (CDRs), compared to a parent antigen binding domain, such alterations resulting in an improvement in the affinity of the antigen binding domain for antigen. Antibodies comprising such affinity-matured antigen-binding domains may bind to their antigen with a Kd of about 5×10−9 M, about 2×10−9 M, about 1×10−9 M, about 5×10−1 M, about 2×10−9 M, about 1×10−10 M, about 5×10−11 M, about 1×10−11 M, about 5×10−12 M, about 1×10−12 M, or less. In some embodiments, the conjugate can have an increased affinity of at least 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 2.5-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 10-fold, 20-fold, or greater as compared to a conjugate without alterations in one or more complementarity determining regions of an antigen-binding domain.

The molar ratio of a conjugate refers to the average number of TGFβR1 inhibitors conjugated to the ASGR1 or ASGR2 antibody or antibody construct in a preparation of a conjugate. The molar ratio can be determined, for example, by Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS), in which the number of TGFβR1 inhibitors conjugated to the antibody or antibody construct can be directly determined. Additionally, as non-limiting examples, the molar ratio can be determined based on hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) peak area, by liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS), by UV/Vis spectroscopy, by reversed-phase-HPLC (RP-HPLC), or by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS).

In some embodiments, the molar ratio of TGFβR1 inhibitors to ASGR1 or ASGR2 antibody or antibody construct (also referred to as a Drug-to-Antibody Ratio or DAR) can be less than 8. In other embodiments, the DAR can be about 8, about 7, about 6.5, about 6, about 5.5, about 5, about 4.5, about 4, about 3.5, about 3, about 2.5, about 2, or 1. In certain embodiments, the DAR can range from 1 to about 8; from 2 to about 7, from about 3 to about 6, from about 4 to about 5

ASGR Binding Domain

An ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain can be an antigen-binding portion of an antibody or an antibody fragment that retains the ability to specifically bind to ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively. An ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain typically recognizes a single antigen. An antibody construct typically comprises, for example, one or two ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domains although more can be included in an antibody construct. An antibody construct can comprise two ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domains in which each ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain recognizes the same antigen—ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively. An antibody construct can comprise two ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domains in which each ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain recognizes the same epitope on the antigen—ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively. An antibody construct can comprise two ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domains in which each ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain recognizes a different epitope on the same antigen—ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively. In such embodiments, the antibody construct can comprise a first ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain and a second ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain. An antibody construct can comprise two ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domains in which each ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain recognizes a different antigen—an antigen other than ASGR1 or ASGR2, respectively. An antibody construct can comprise three antigen binding domains in which each antigen binding domain recognizes a different antigen and wherein at least one of the three antigen binding domains is specific for ASGR1 or ASGR2. An antibody construct can comprise three antigen binding domains in which two of the antigen binding domains recognize the same antigen, wherein at least one of the three antigen binding domains is specific for ASGR1 or ASGR2.

An ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain of an antibody construct, for example an ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain from a monoclonal antibody, can comprise a light chain and a heavy chain. In one aspect, a monoclonal antibody specifically binds to an ASGR1 or ASGR2 present on the surface of a liver cell.

In certain embodiments, a conjugate of this disclosure can specifically bind to an ASGR1 or ASGR2 on a liver cell. In other embodiments, a conjugate can be capable of specifically binding to two or more antigens, wherein the antigens are the same or different, and at least one antigen is ASGR1 or ASGR2. The second antigen binding domain (not the ASGR1 or ASGR2 binding domain) can specifically bind to an antigen on a liver cell, wherein the antigen is a liver cell antigen. Each antigen can be expressed by a liver cell. A liver cell antigen can be a molecular marker, which is expressed on a liver cell when the liver cell is a cancer cell, and is preferentially expressed on a liver cell as compared to cells from other normal tissues. For example, a liver cell antigen can be expressed on a canalicular cell, Kupffer cell, hepatocyte, a stellate cell, or other liver cell type, or a combination thereof. The liver cell antigen can be a liver cell surface receptor. The liver cell antigen can be a hepatocyte antigen. The liver cell antigen can be expressed on a non-cancerous liver cell.

A liver cell antigen can include, but is not limited to, asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1), asialoglycoprotein receptor 2 (ASGR2), transferrin receptor 2 (TRF2), UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1 (UGT1A1), solute carrier family 22 member 7 (SLC22A7), solute carrier family 13 member 5 (SLC13A5), solute carrier family 22 member 1(SLC22A1), and complement component 9 (C9). In some embodiments, a liver cell antigen is selected from one or more of ASGR1, ASGR2, TRF2, UGT1A1, SLC22A7, SLC13A5, SLC22A1, and C9. In some embodiments, the liver cell antigen is selected from one or more of ASGR1, ASGR2, TRF2, UGT1A1, SLC22A7, SLC13A5, and SLC22A1. In some embodiments, the liver cell antigen is selected from one or more of ASGR1, ASGR2 and TRF2. The antigen binding domain can specifically bind to a liver cell antigen, wherein the liver cell antigen has an amino acid sequence that comprises at least 80% identity to an amino acid sequence of an antigen selected from one or more of human ASGR1, human ASGR2, and human TRF2. The antigen binding domain can specifically bind to a liver cell antigen, wherein the liver cell antigen has an amino acid sequence that comprises at least 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 100% identity to an amino acid sequence of an antigen selected from human ASGR1, human ASGR2, and human TRF2. In some embodiments, the antigen binding domain can specifically bind to a liver cell antigen, wherein the liver cell antigen has an amino acid sequence that comprises at least 80% identity to an amino acid sequence of an antigen selected from ASGR1, ASGR2, TRF2, UGT1A1, SLC22A7, SLC13A5, SLC22A1, and C9. The antigen binding domain can specifically bind to a liver cell antigen, wherein the liver cell antigen has an amino acid sequence that comprises at least 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 100% identity to an amino acid sequence of an antigen selected from ASGR1, ASGR2, TRF2, UGT1A1, SLC22A7, SLC13A5, SLC22A1, and C9. The antigen binding domain can specifically bind to a liver cell antigen, wherein the liver cell antigen has an amino acid sequence that comprises at least 80% identity to an amino acid sequence of an antigen selected from ASGR1, ASGR2, TRF2, UGT1A1, SLC22A7, SLC13A5, and SLC22A1.

The specificity of an antigen binding domain to the antigen of a conjugate disclosed herein can be influenced by the presence of a TGFβR1 inhibitor. The antigen binding domain of a conjugate of the instant disclosure can bind to its antigen with at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, or about 100% of a specificity of the antigen binding domain to the antigen in the absence of the TGFβR1 inhibitor.

In some embodiments, an antibody construct is an antibody. In some embodiments, an antibody comprises an antigen binding domain and an Fc domain. In some embodiments, an antibody comprises two light chain polypeptides (light chains) and two heavy chain polypeptides (heavy chains), held together covalently by disulfide linkages. The heavy chain typically comprises a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region. The heavy chain constant region comprises three domains, CH1, CH2, and CH3. An Fc domain typically comprises heavy chain CH2 and CH3 domains. The light chain typically comprises a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region. The antigen-recognition regions of the antibody variable domains typically comprise six complementarity determining regions (CDRs), or hypervariable regions, that lie within the framework of the heavy chain variable region and light chain variable region at the N-terminal ends of the two heavy and two light chains. The constant domains provide the general framework of the antibody and may not be involved directly in binding the antibody to an antigen, but can be involved in various effector functions, such as participation of the antibody in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).

An antibody can be any class, e.g., IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM. Certain classes can be further divided into isotypes, e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2. The heavy-chain constant regions that correspond to the different classes of immunoglobulins can be α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. The light chains can be either kappa (or κ) or lambda (or λ).

In some embodiments an antigen binding domain comprises a light chain complementary determining region 1 (LCDR1), a light chain complementary determining region 2 (LCDR2), a light chain complementary determining region 3 (LCDR3), a heavy chain complementary determining region 1 (HCDR1), a heavy chain complementary determining region 2 (HCDR2), and a heavy chain complementary determining region 3 (HCDR3). In some embodiments, an antibody may be a heavy-chain only antibody, in which case the antigen binding domain comprises HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3, and the antibody lacks a light chain. Unless stated otherwise, the CDRs described herein can be defined according to the IMGT (the international ImMunoGeneTics information) system.

An antibody can be chimeric or humanized. Chimeric and humanized forms of non-human (e.g., murine) antibodies can be intact (full length) chimeric immunoglobulins, immunoglobulin chains or antigen binding fragments thereof (such as Fv, Fab, Fab′, F(ab′)2 or other target-binding subdomains of antibodies), which can contain sequences derived from non-human immunoglobulin. In general, the humanized antibody can comprise substantially all of at least one, and typically two, variable domains, in which all or substantially all of the CDR regions correspond to those of a non-human immunoglobulin and all or substantially all of the framework (FR) regions are those of a human immunoglobulin sequence. A humanized antibody can also comprise at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region (Fc), an Fc domain, typically that of a human immunoglobulin sequence.

An antibody described herein can be a human antibody. As used herein, “human antibodies” can include antibodies having, for example, the amino acid sequence of a human immunoglobulin and include antibodies isolated from human immunoglobulin libraries or from animals transgenic for one or more human immunoglobulins and that typically do not express endogenous immunoglobulins. Human antibodies can be produced using transgenic mice which are incapable of expressing functional endogenous immunoglobulins, but which can express human immunoglobulin genes. Completely human antibodies that recognize a selected epitope can be generated using guided selection. In this approach, a selected non-human monoclonal antibody, e.g., a mouse antibody, is used to guide the selection of a completely human antibody recognizing the same epitope

An antibody described herein can be a bispecific antibody or a dual variable domain antibody (DVD). Bispecific and DVD antibodies are monoclonal, often human or humanized, antibodies that have binding specificities for at least two different antigens.

An antibody described herein can be derivatized or otherwise modified. For example, derivatized antibodies can be modified by glycosylation, acetylation, pegylation, phosphorylation, amidation, derivatization by known protecting/blocking groups, proteolytic cleavage, or the like.

An antibody described herein can specifically bind to an antigen that is expressed on a liver cell. For example, an antibody can specifically bind to a liver cell antigen. A liver cell antigen can be expressed on a canalicular cell, Kupffer cell, hepatocyte, a stellate cell, or other liver cell type, or a combination thereof. The liver cell antigen can be a liver cell surface receptor. The liver cell antigen can be a hepatocyte antigen. The liver cell antigen can be expressed on a non-cancerous liver cell. A liver cell antigen can include, but is not limited to, asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1), asialoglycoprotein receptor 2 (ASGR2), transferrin receptor 2 (TRF2), UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1 (UGT1A1), solute carrier family 22 member 7 (SLC22A7), solute carrier family 13 member 5 (SLC13A5), solute carrier family 22 member 1(SLC22A1), and complement component 9 (C9).

Exemplary Fc Domains

An antibody construct can comprise an Fc domain of an IgG1 isotype. An antibody construct can comprise an Fc domain of an IgG2 isotype. An antibody construct can comprise an Fc domain of an IgG3 isotype. An antibody construct can comprise an Fc domain of an IgG4 isotype. An antibody construct can have a hybrid isotype comprising constant regions from two or more isotypes. An Fc domain typically comprises CH2 and CH3 domains of a heavy chain constant region, but may comprise more or less of the heavy chain constant region as well.

The specificity of the Fc domain to an Fc receptor of a conjugate disclosed herein can be influenced by the presence of a TGFβR1 inhibitor. The Fc domain of the conjugate can bind to an Fc receptor with at least about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, or about 100% of a specificity of the Fc domain to the Fc receptor in the absence of the TGFβR1 inhibitor.

In some embodiments, an antibody construct includes an Fc domain. The conjugate can comprise an antibody construct comprising an Fc domain that can bind to an FcR when linked to a TGFβR1 inhibitor conjugate. An Fc domain is a structure that can bind to one or more Fc receptors (FcRs). FcRs can bind to an Fc domain of an antibody. FcRs can bind to an Fc domain of an antibody bound to an antigen. FcRs are organized into classes (e.g., gamma (γ), alpha (α) and epsilon (ε)) based on the class of antibody that the FcR recognizes. The FcαR class binds to IgA and includes several isoforms, FcαRI (CD89) and FcαμR. The FcγR class binds to IgG and includes several isoforms, FcγRI (CD64), FcγRIIA (CD32a), FcγRIIB (CD32b), FcγRIIIA (CD16a), and FcγRIIIB (CD16b). An FcγRIIIA (CD16a) can be an FcγRIIIA (CD16a) F158 variant or a V158 variant.

Each FcγR isoform can differ in binding affinity to the Fc domain of the IgG antibody. For example, FcγRI can bind to IgG with greater affinity than FcγRII or FcγRIII. The affinity of a particular FcγR isoform to IgG can be controlled, in part, by a glycan (e.g., oligosaccharide) at position CH2 84.4 of the IgG antibody. For example, fucose containing CH2 84.4 glycans can reduce IgG affinity for FcγRIIIA. In addition, G0 glucans can have increased affinity for FcγRIIIA due to the lack of galactose and terminal GlcNAc moiety.

Binding of an Fc domain to an FcR can enhance an immune response. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can lead to the maturation of immune cells. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can lead to the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs). FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can lead to antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can lead to more efficient immune cell antigen uptake and processing. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can promote the expansion and activation of T cells. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can promote the expansion and activation of CD8+ T cells. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can influence immune cell regulation of T cell responses. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can influence immune cell regulation of T cell responses. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can influence dendritic cell regulation of T cell responses. FcR-mediated signaling that can result from an Fc domain binding to an FcR can influence functional polarization of T cells (e.g., polarization can be toward a TH1 cell response).

The profile of FcRs on a DC can impact the ability of the DC to respond upon stimulation. For example, most DC can express both CD32A and CD32B, which can have opposing effects on IgG-mediated maturation and function of DCs: binding of IgG to CD32A can mature and activate DCs in contrast with CD32B, which can mediate inhibition due to phosphorylation of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM), after CD32B binding of IgG. Therefore, the activity of these two receptors can establish a threshold of DC activation. Furthermore, difference in functional avidity of these receptors for IgG can shift their functional balance. Hence, altering the Fc domain binding to FcRs can also shift their functional balance, allowing for manipulation (either enhanced activity or enhanced inhibition) of the DC immune response.

A modification in the amino acid sequence of an Fc domain can alter the recognition of an FcR for the Fc domain. However, such modifications can still allow for FcR-mediated signaling. A modification can be a substitution of an amino acid at a residue of an Fc domain (e.g., wildtype) for a different amino acid at that residue. A modification can permit binding of an FcR to a site on the Fc domain that the FcR may not otherwise bind to. A modification can increase binding affinity of an FcR to the Fc domain. A modification can decrease binding affinity of an FcR to a site on the Fc domain that the FcR may have increased binding affinity for. A modification can increase the subsequent FcR-mediated signaling after Fc domain binding to an FcR.

An Fc domain can be a naturally occurring or a variant of a naturally occurring Fc domain and can comprise at least one amino acid change as compared to the sequence of a wild-type Fc domain. An amino acid change in an Fc domain can allow the antibody or conjugate to bind to at least one Fc receptor with lessor affinity compared to a wild-type Fc domain.

In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits increased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits increased binding affinity to FcRn receptors.

In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits decreased binding affinity to one or more Fc receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits decreased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits decreased binding affinity to FcRn receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits decreased binding affinity to Fcgamma and FcRn receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc domain is an Fc null domain. In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits decreased binding affinity to FcRn receptors, but exhibits the same or increased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors as compared to a wildtype Fc domain. In some embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits increased binding affinity to FcRn receptors, but exhibits the same or decreased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors.

An Fc domain may have one or more, two or more, three or more, or four or more amino acid substitutions that decrease binding of the Fc domain to an Fc receptor. In certain embodiments, an Fc domain has decreased binding affinity for one or more of FcγRI (CD64), FcγRIIA (CD32), FcγRIIIA (CD16a), FcγRIIIB (CD16b), or any combination thereof. In order to decrease binding affinity of an Fc domain to an Fc receptor, the Fc domain may comprise one or more amino acid substitutions that reduces the binding affinity of the Fc domain to an Fc receptor. In other embodiments, an Fc domain exhibits the same or substantially similar binding affinity to one or more of FcγRI (CD64), FcγRIIA (CD32), FcγRIIIA (CD16a), FcγRIIIB (CD16b), or any combination thereof as compared to a wild-type Fc domain from an IgG antibody (e.g., IgG1 antibody). In some embodiments, an Fc domain can comprise a sequence of an IgG isoform that has been modified from the wild-type IgG sequence.

Other substitutions in an IgG Fc domain that affect its interaction with FcRn are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 9,803,023 (the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein).

In some embodiments, an antibody is a human IgG2 antibody, including an IgG2 Fc region. In some embodiments, the heavy chain of the human IgG2 antibody can be mutated at cysteines as positions 127, 232, or 233. In some embodiments, the light chain of a human IgG2 antibody can be mutated at a cysteine at position 214. The mutations in the heavy and light chains of the human IgG2 antibody can be from a cysteine residue to a serine residue.

A modification can comprise a substitution at one or more one amino acid residues of an Fc domain such as at 5 different amino acid residues including L235V/F243L/R292P/Y300L/P396L (IgG1VLPLL). The numbering of amino acids residues described herein is according to the EU index. This modification can be located in a portion of an antibody construct, which can include an Fc domain and, in particular, can be located in a portion of the Fc domain that can bind to Fc receptors. A modification can comprise a substitution at one or more amino acid residues such as at 2 different amino acid residues of an Fc domain, including S239D/I332E (IgG1DE). This modification can be located in a portion of an antibody sequence which includes an Fc domain of the antibody and in particular, are located in portions of the Fc domain that can bind to Fc receptors. A modification can comprise a substitution at one or more amino acid residues such as at 3 different amino acid residues of an Fc domain including S298A/E333A/K334A (IgG1AAA). The modification can be located in a portion of an antibody sequence, which includes an Fc domain of the antibody and, in particular, can be located in portions of the Fc domain that can bind Fc receptors.

Binding of Fc receptors to an Fc domain can be affected by amino acid substitutions. For example, binding of some Fc receptors to an Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1VLPLL modifications can be enhanced compared to wild-type by as result of the L235V/F243L/R292P/Y300L/P396L amino acid modifications. However, binding of other Fc receptors to the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1VLPLL modifications can be reduced compared to wild-type by the L235V/F243L/R292P/Y300L/P396L amino acid modifications. For example, the binding affinities of the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1VLPLL modifications to FcγRIIIA and to FcγRIIA can be enhanced compared to wild-type whereas the binding affinity of the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1VLPLL modifications to FcγRIIB can be reduced compared to wild-type. Binding of Fc receptors to an Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1DE modifications can be enhanced compared to wild-type as a result of the S239D/I332E amino acid modification. However, binding of some Fc receptors to the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1DE modifications can be reduced compared to wild-type by S239D/I332E amino acid modification. For example, the binding affinities of the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1DE modifications to FcγRIIIA and to FcγRIIB can be enhanced compared to wild-type. Binding of Fc receptors to an Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1AAA modifications can be enhanced compared to wild-type as a result of the S298A/E333A/K334A amino acid modification. However, binding of some Fc receptors to Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1AAA modifications can be reduced compared to wild-type by S298A/E333A/K334A amino acid modification. Binding affinities of the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1AAA modifications to FcγRIIIA can be enhanced compared to wild-type whereas the binding affinity of the Fc domain variant comprising the IgG1AAA modifications to FcγRIIB can be reduced compared to wildtype.

In some embodiments, the heavy chain of a human IgG2 antibody can be mutated at cysteines as positions 127, 232, or 233. In some embodiments, the light chain of a human IgG2 antibody can be mutated at a cysteine at position 214. The mutations in the heavy and light chains of the human IgG2 antibody can be from a cysteine residue to a serine residue.

While an antibody construct can comprise a first binding domain and a second binding domain with wild-type or modified amino acid sequences encoding the Fc domain, the modifications of the Fc domain from the wild-type sequence may not significantly alter binding and/or affinity of the Fc domain or the antigen binding domain(s). For example, binding and/or affinity of an antibody construct comprising a first binding domain and a second binding domain (or, in some cases, a third binding domain) and having the Fc domain modifications of IgG1VLPLL, IgG1DE, or IgG1AAA may not be significantly altered by modification of an Fc domain amino acid sequence compared to a wild-type sequence. Modifications of an Fc domain from a wild-type sequence may not alter binding and/or affinity of a first binding domain or target binding domain that binds, for example, to a liver cell antigen or a viral antigen from a virus infecting liver cell. Additionally, the binding and/or affinity of the binding domains described herein, for example a first binding domain, a second binding domain (or, in some cases, a third binding domain), and an Fc domain variant selected from IgG1VLPLL, IgG1DE, and IgG1AAA, may be comparable to the binding and/or affinity of wild-type antibodies.

An Fc domain can be from an antibody. An Fc domain can be from an IgG antibody. An Fc domain can be from an IgG1, IgG2, or IgG4 antibody. An Fc domain can be at least 80% identical to an Fc domain from an antibody. An Fc domain can be a portion of the Fc domain of an antibody.

Anti-ASGR1 Antibodies and Binding Domains Thereof The present disclosure provides exemplary anti-ASGR1 antibodies (i.e., antibodies, such as isolated monoclonal antibodies, that specifically bind to ASGR1) and their ASGR1-binding domains thereof that may be used in forming TGFβR1 inhibitor-ASGR antibody conjugates. In certain embodiments, such an anti-ASGR1 antibody is linked with a TGFβR1 inhibitor to form an anti-ASGR1 antibody TGFβR1 inhibitor conjugate. In certain other embodiments, an exemplary ASGR1-binding domain provided herein and a second antigen binding domain form part of a bispecific antibody construct, which in turn is used in forming a TGFβR1 inhibitor-bispecific antibody conjugate. In any of the aforementioned antibodies specific for ASGR1 are specific for human ASGR1.

As demonstrated in the Examples provided herein, certain exemplary anti-ASGR1 antibodies (e.g., H8K and L4L) of the present disclosure were determined to belong to a unique epitope bin compared to reference anti-ASGR1 antibodies and block ASGR1 ligand (GalNac) binding to ASGR1. While certain exemplary anti-ASGR1 antibodies (e.g., G2D, J4F, and K2E) belonged to the same epitope bin as a reference anti-ASGR1 antibody, G2D and K2E antibodies unexpectedly differ from the reference anti-ASGR1 antibody in that: they do not exhibit off-target binding to rat CLEC10A whereas the reference antibody does; and the G2D antibody does not compete with ASGR1 ligand (GalNac) binding and K2E antibody only minimally blocks GalNac binding, whereas the reference antibody competes with GalNac binding. In addition, certain exemplary anti-ASGR1 antibodies exhibited calcium sensitivity in binding with ASGR1 (e.g., during association and/or disassociation with ASGR1). The Examples provided herein also show that addition of a G27Y mutation in the VH region of certain exemplary humanized anti-ASGR1 antibodies stabilizes the antibody structure, resulting in more homogenous recovery.

Synthetic chemistry transformations and methodologies useful in synthesizing the compounds and conjugates described herein are known in the art and include, for example, those described in R. Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformations (1989); T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2d. Ed. (1991); L. Fieser and M. Fieser, Fieser and Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis (1994); and L. Paquette, ed., Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis (1995).

Linker Region/Linker L3

The conjugates of the present disclosure include a linker region, such as L3, that attaches an antibody construct to at least one TGFβR1 inhibitor. In the conjugates, an inhibitor as described herein is covalently bound to an antibody construct by way of a linker, such as, for example, L3. A linker may be selected from any of the linker moieties discussed herein. The linker can be, for example, a cleavable or a non-cleavable linker. Linkers of the conjugates and methods described herein may not affect the binding of active portions of a conjugate (e.g., antigen binding domains and Fe domains) to a target or an Fc receptor. A conjugate can comprise multiple linkers. These linkers can be the same linkers or different linkers.

Linkers of the disclosure (e.g., L3) may have from about 10 to about 500 atoms in a linker, such as from about 10 to about 400 atoms, such as about 10 to about 300 atoms in a linker. In certain embodiments, linkers of the disclosure have from about 30 to about 400 atoms, such as from about 30 to about 300 atoms in the linker.

In certain embodiments, an inhibitor as described herein is covalently bound to a linker. The linker may be covalently bound to any position on the inhibitor, valence permitting. The linker may comprise a reactive moiety, e.g., a nucleophile or an electrophile that can react to form a covalent bond.

As will be appreciated by skilled artisans, a linker connects a TGFβR1 inhibitor to the antibody construct of the conjugate by forming a covalent linkage to the TGFβR1 inhibitor at one location and a covalent linkage to the antibody construct of the conjugate at another location. A conjugate may be prepared by contacting an antibody construct with a linker-compound described herein under conditions in which the linker-compound covalently links to the antibody construct. One embodiment pertains to a method of making a conjugate by contacting a linker-compound with an antibody construct under conditions in which the linker-compound covalently links to the antibody construct. The covalent linkages can be formed by reaction between functional groups in synthetic precursors for each region. Thus, the covalent linkages can be formed by reaction between functional groups on the linker and functional groups on the TGFβR1 inhibitor and antibody construct.

These conjugates can be made by various methods. It is understood that one skilled in the art may be able to make these compounds by similar methods or by combining other methods known to one skilled in the art. It is also understood that one skilled in the art would be able to make, in a similar manner as described herein by using the appropriate starting materials and modifying the synthetic route as needed. Starting materials and reagents can be obtained from commercial vendors or synthesized according to sources known to those skilled in the art or prepared as described herein.

One embodiment pertains to a conjugate formed by contacting an antibody construct that specifically binds to a liver antigen(s), a viral antigen(s) expressed on a liver cell, or both, with a linker described herein under conditions in which the linker covalently links to the antibody construct. One embodiment pertains to a method of making a conjugate formed by contacting a linker described herein under conditions in which the linker covalently links to an antibody construct.

Linkers can be short, long, flexible, rigid, cleavable, non-cleavable, hydrophilic, hydrophobic, unbranched (e.g., where z is 1), or branched (e.g., where z is greater than 1). A linker can contain connector segments that have different characteristics, such as segments of flexibility and segments of rigidity, or segments that are cleavable and segments that are cleavable. A linker can contain multiple segments, such as one or more non-cleavable segments and one or more cleavable segments. The linkers may be polyvalent such that they covalently link more than one inhibitor to a single site on an antibody construct, or monovalent such that covalently they link a single inhibitor to a single site on the antibody construct. A linker can comprise alkylene, alkenylene, alkynylene, polyether, polyester, polyamide, polyamino acid, polypeptide, cleavable peptide, and/or para-aminobenzylcarbamate groups. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a “non-cleavable” segment, such as a “non-cleavable linker,” that is chemically stable to extracellular environments, for example, chemically stable in the blood stream and in intracellular environments. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a “cleavable” segment, such as a “cleavable linker,” that includes one or more linkages that are not stable, such as linkages that are designed to cleave and/or immolate or otherwise breakdown specifically or non-specifically in the blood stream and/or inside cells (i.e., in an intracellular environment). Linkers comprise one or more cleavable segments, one or more non-cleavable segments, or a combination thereof.

Cleavable linkers can be cleavable in vitro and in vivo. Cleavable linkers can include chemically or enzymatically unstable or degradable linkages. Cleavable linkers can incorporate one or more chemical bonds that are either chemically or enzymatically cleavable while the remainder of the linker can be non-cleavable. Cleavable linkers can rely on processes inside the cell to liberate a TGFβR1 inhibitor, such as reduction in the cytoplasm, exposure to acidic conditions in the lysosome, or cleavage by specific proteases or other enzymes within the cell. A cleavable linker can be sensitive to (i.e., cleavable by) enzymes at a specific site. A cleavable linker can be cleaved by enzymes such as proteases.

A linker can contain a chemically labile group such as hydrazone and/or disulfide groups. Linkers comprising chemically labile groups can exploit differential properties between the plasma and some cytoplasmic compartments. The intracellular conditions that can facilitate TGFβR1 inhibitor release for hydrazone containing linkers can be the acidic environment of endosomes and lysosomes, while the disulfide containing linkers can be reduced in the cytosol, which can contain high thiol concentrations, e.g., glutathione. The plasma stability of a linker containing a chemically labile group can be increased by introducing steric hindrance using substituents near the chemically labile group.

Acid-labile groups, such as hydrazone, can remain intact during systemic circulation in the blood's neutral pH environment (pH 7.3-7.5) and can undergo hydrolysis once the conjugate is internalized into mildly acidic endosomal (pH 5.0-6.5) and lysosomal (pH 4.5-5.0) compartments of the cell. This pH dependent release mechanism can be associated with nonspecific release of the drug. To increase the stability of the hydrazone group of the linker, the linker can be varied by chemical modification, e.g., substitution, allowing tuning to achieve more efficient release in the lysosome with a minimized loss in circulation.

Hydrazone-containing linkers can contain additional cleavage sites, such as additional acid-labile cleavage sites and/or enzymatically labile cleavage sites. Conjugates including exemplary hydrazone-containing linkers can include, for example, the following structures:

In certain linkers, such as linker (Ia), the linker can comprise two cleavable groups—a disulfide and a hydrazone moiety. For such linkers, effective cleavage can require acidic pH or disulfide reduction and acidic pH. Linkers such as (Ib) and (Ic) can be effective with a single hydrazone cleavage site.

Other acid-labile groups that can be included in linkers include cis-aconityl-containing linkers. cis-Aconityl chemistry can use a carboxylic acid juxtaposed to an amide bond to accelerate amide hydrolysis under acidic conditions.

Cleavable linkers can also include a disulfide group. Disulfides can be thermodynamically stable at physiological pH and can be designed to release upon internalization inside cells, wherein the cytosol can provide a significantly more reducing environment compared to the extracellular environment. Scission of disulfide bonds can require the presence of a cytoplasmic thiol cofactor, such as (reduced) glutathione (GSH), such that disulfide-containing linkers can be reasonably stable in circulation, selectively releasing the TGFβR1 inhibitor in the cytosol. The intracellular enzyme protein disulfide isomerase, or similar enzymes capable of cleaving disulfide bonds, can also contribute to the preferential cleavage of disulfide bonds inside cells. GSH can be present in cells in the concentration range of 0.5-10 mM compared with a significantly lower concentration of GSH or cysteine, the most abundant low-molecular weight thiol, in circulation at approximately 5 μM. Tumor cells, where irregular blood flow can lead to a hypoxic state, can result in enhanced activity of reductive enzymes and therefore even higher glutathione concentrations. The in vivo stability of a disulfide-containing linker can be enhanced by chemical modification of the linker, e.g., use of steric hindrance adjacent to the disulfide bond.

Exemplary cleavable linkers including disulfide moieties can include the following structures:

wherein R is independently selected at each occurrence from hydrogen or alkyl, for example. Increasing steric hindrance adjacent to the disulfide bond can increase the stability of the linker. Structures such as (Id) and (If) can show increased in vivo stability when one or more R groups is selected from a lower alkyl such as methyl.

Another type of cleavable linker is specifically cleaved by an enzyme. For example, the linker can be cleaved by a lysosomal enzyme. Such linkers can be peptide-based or can include peptidic regions that can act as substrates for enzymes. Peptide-based linkers can be more stable in plasma and extracellular milieu than chemically labile linkers.

Peptide bonds can have good serum stability, as lysosomal proteolytic enzymes can have very low activity in blood due to endogenous inhibitors and the unfavorably high pH value of blood compared to lysosomes. Release of a TGFβR1 inhibitor from a conjugate can occur due to the action of lysosomal proteases, e.g., cathepsin and/or plasmin. These proteases can be present at elevated levels in certain tumor tissues. The linker can be cleavable by a lysosomal enzyme. The lysosomal enzyme can be, for example, cathepsin B, β-glucuronidase, or β-galactosidase.

In a linker, a cleavable peptide can be selected from tetrapeptides or dipeptides such as Val-Cit, Val-Ala, and Phe-Lys. Dipeptides can have lower hydrophobicity compared to longer peptides, depending on the composition of the peptide. A variety of dipeptide-based cleavable linkers can be used in the conjugates described herein.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker comprises a cleavable peptide. In certain embodiments, a peptide can be selected to contain natural amino acids, unnatural amino acids, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the cleavable peptide is a dipeptide, tripeptide, or tetrapeptide. In some embodiments, the cleavable peptide is Val-Cit; Cit-Val; Ala-Ala; Ala-Cit; Cit-Ala; Asn-Cit; Cit-Asn; Cit-Cit; Val-Glu; Glu-Val; Ser-Cit; Cit-Ser; Lys-Cit; Cit-Lys; Asp-Cit; Cit-Asp; Ala-Val; Val-Ala; Phe-Lys; Lys-Phe; Val-Lys; Lys-Val; Ala-Lys; Lys-Ala; Phe-Cit; Cit-Phe; Leu-Cit; Cit-Leu; Ile-Cit; Cit-Ile; Phe-Arg; Arg-Phe; Cit-Trp; Trp-Cit; Ala-Ala-Asn; Gly-Phe-Leu-Gly; Gly-Gly-Phe-Gly; or Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker comprises a structure of formula:

wherein -AA1-AA2- is the cleavable dipeptide and AA1 and AA2 are each an amino acid.

In some embodiments, the cleavable dipeptide is Val-Cit.

Enzymatically cleavable linkers can include a self-immolative spacer to spatially separate the TGFβR1 inhibitor from the site of enzymatic cleavage. The direct attachment of a TGFβR1 inhibitor to a peptide linker can result in proteolytic release of an amino acid adduct of the TGFβR1 inhibitor, thereby impairing its activity. The use of a self-immolative spacer can allow for the elimination of the fully active, chemically unmodified TGFβR1 inhibitor upon amide bond hydrolysis.

One self-immolative spacer can be a bifunctional para-aminobenzyl alcohol group, which can link to the peptide through the amino group, forming an amide bond, while amine containing TGFβR1 inhibitors can be attached through carbamate functionalities to the benzylic hydroxyl group of the linker to form a para-aminobenzyl carbamate (PMBC) group. The resulting pro-TGFβR1 inhibitor can be activated upon protease-mediated cleavage, leading to a 1,6-elimination reaction releasing the unmodified TGFβR1 inhibitor, carbon dioxide, and remnants of the linker group. The following scheme depicts the fragmentation of a substituted p-aminobenzyl carbamate and release of the compound:

wherein HX-D represents the unmodified inhibitor.

In some embodiments, a cleavable linker comprises a valine-citrulline peptide or valine-alanine peptide. A cleavable linker can be a valine-citrulline peptide or a valine-alanine peptide. A valine-citrulline or valine-alanine-containing linker can contain a succimide group. A valine-citrulline- or valine-alanine-containing linker can contain a para-aminobenzyl (PAB) group. In some embodiments, the PAB group is a para-aminobenzyl alcohol (PABA) group or a para-aminobenzyl carbamate (PABC) group. In some embodiments, a valine-citrulline- or valine-alanine-containing linker also includes a PAB group, such as a PABC group. In some embodiments, a cleavable linker comprises a -(valine-citrulline)-(para-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl) group. In some embodiments, a cleavable linker comprises a lysine with an N-terminal amine acetylated, and a valine-citrulline cleavage site. In some embodiments, the cleavable linker comprises a succinimide group. In some embodiments, a valine-citrulline- or valine-alanine-containing linker comprises a PAB or PABC group and a succinimide group. In some embodiments, a cleavable linker is a (succinimidocaproyl)-(valine-citrulline)-(para-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl) group. In some embodiments, a cleavable linker comprises a lysine with an N-terminal amine acetylated, and a valine-citrulline cleavage site.

A linker can contain an enzymatically cleavable peptide, for example, a linker comprising structural formula (CIIIa), (CIIIb), (CIIIc), or (CIIId):

or a salt thereof, wherein: “peptide” represents a peptide (illustrated in N→C orientation, wherein peptide includes the amino and carboxy “termini”) that is cleavable by a lysosomal enzyme; T represents a polymer comprising one or more ethylene glycol units or an alkylene chain, or combinations thereof; Ra is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, sulfonate and methyl sulfonate; Ry is hydrogen or C1-4 alkyl-(O)r—(C1-4 alkylene)s-G1 or C1-4 alkyl-(N)-[(C1-4 alkylene)-G1]2; Rz is C1-4 alkyl-(O)r—(C1-4 alkylene)s-G2; G1 is —SO3H, —CO2H, PEG 4-32, or a sugar moiety; G2 is —SO3H, —CO2H, or a PEG 4-32 moiety; r is 0 or 1; s is 0 or 1; p is an integer ranging from 0 to 5; q is 0 or 1; x is 0 or 1; y is 0 or 1; represents the point of attachment of the linker to a compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), or (VI), or pharmaceutically acceptable isomer, tautomer, racemate, hydrate, solvate, isotope, or salt thereof; and * represents the point of attachment to the remainder of the linker.

wherein indicates an attachment site of a linker (L) to a compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), or (VI), or pharmaceutically acceptable isomer, tautomer, racemate, hydrate, solvate, isotope, or salt thereof.

wherein indicates an attachment site to a TGFβR1 inhibitor, or pharmaceutically acceptable isomer, tautomer, racemate, hydrate, solvate, isotope, or salt thereof.

The enzymatically cleavable linker can be a ß-glucuronic acid-based linker. Facile release of the TGFβR1 inhibitor can be realized through cleavage of the ß-glucuronide glycosidic bond by the lysosomal enzyme ß-glucuronidase. This enzyme can be abundantly present within lysosomes and can be overexpressed in some tumor types, while the enzyme activity outside cells can be low. ß-Glucuronic acid-based linkers can be used to circumvent the tendency of a conjugate to undergo aggregation due to the hydrophilic nature of ß-glucuronides. In certain embodiments, ß-glucuronic acid-based linkers can link the antibody construct to a hydrophobic TGFβR1 inhibitor.

A variety of cleavable β-glucuronic acid-based linkers useful for linking drugs such as auristatins, camptothecin and doxorubicin analogues, CBI minor-groove binders, and psymberin to antibodies have been described. All of these β-glucuronic acid-based linkers may be used in the conjugates comprising a TGFβR1 inhibitor described herein. In certain embodiments, the enzymatically cleavable linker is a β-galactoside-based linker. β-Galactoside is present abundantly within lysosomes, while the enzyme activity outside cells is low.

Additionally, cleavable linkers may comprise a phenol and connection through the phenolic oxygen. One such linker employs diamino-ethane unit (e.g., “Space Link”) in conjunction with traditional “PABO”-based self-immolative groups to deliver a phenol. Inhibitors containing an aromatic or aliphatic hydroxyl group can be covalently bonded to a linker through the hydroxyl group using a methodology that relies on a methylene carbamate linkage, as described in WO 2015/095755.

Other degradable linkages that can be included in cleavable linkers include ester linkages formed by the reaction of PEG carboxylic acids or activated PEG carboxylic acids with alcohol groups on a TGFβR1 inhibitor, wherein such ester groups can hydrolyze under physiological conditions to release the TGFβR1 inhibitor. Hydrolytically degradable linkages can include, but are not limited to, carbonate linkages; imine linkages resulting from reaction of an amine and an aldehyde; phosphate ester linkages formed by reacting an alcohol with a phosphate group; acetal linkages that are the reaction product of an aldehyde and an alcohol; orthoester linkages that are the reaction product of a formate and an alcohol; and oligonucleotide linkages formed by a phosphoramidite group, including but not limited to, at the end of a polymer, and a 5′ hydroxyl group of an oligonucleotide.

Non-natural amino acids can include para-azidomethyl-1-phenylalanine (pAMF). An attachment site can also be at a residue containing an oxime bond that was formed by modifying a ketone group with an alkoxyamine on another moiety, and a reactive primary amine, such as a reactive primary amine at a C-terminal end of a protein or peptide, such as by using Sortase A linker, which can be created by a Sortase A enzyme fusing an LXPTG recognition motif (SEQ ID NO:237) to an N-terminal GGG motif to regenerate a native amide bond.

The linker created can therefore link a moiety attached to the LXPTG recognition motif (SEQ ID NO:237) with a moiety attached to the N-terminal GGG motif. An attachment can be via any of a number of bonds, for example but not limited to, an amide bond, an ester bond, an ether bond, a carbon-nitrogen bond, a carbon-carbon single double or triple bond, a disulfide bond, or a thioether bond. A linker can have at least one functional group, which can be linked to the antibody construct. Non-limiting examples of the functional groups can include those which form an amide bond, an ester bond, an ether bond, a carbonate bond, a carbamate bond, or a thioether bond, such functional groups can be, for example, amino groups; carboxyl groups; aldehyde groups; azide groups; alkyne and alkene groups; ketones; carbonates; carbonyl functionalities bonded to leaving groups such as cyano and succinimidyl and hydroxyl groups.

A Sortase A linker can be created by a Sortase A enzyme fusing an LXPTG recognition motif (SEQ ID NO:237) to an N-terminal GGG motif to regenerate a native amide bond. The linker created can therefore link an antibody construct attached to the LXPTG recognition motif (SEQ ID NO:237) with a binding domain attached to the N-terminal GGG motif. A binding domain can be connected to a linker by a direct linkage. A direct linkage is a covalent bond. For example, a linker can be attached to a terminus of an amino acid sequence of a binding domain, or could be attached to a side chain modification to the binding domain, such as the side chain of a cysteine residue, an engineered cysteine residue, a lysine residue, a serine residue, a threonine residue, a tyrosine residue, an aspartic acid residue, a glutamic acid residue, a glutamine residue, an engineered glutamine residue, a selenocysteine residue, or a non-natural amino acid.

An attachment can also be at a residue containing an oxime bond that was formed by modifying a ketone group with an alkoxyamine on another moiety, and a reactive primary amine, such as a reactive primary amine at a C-terminal end of a protein or peptide. An attachment can be via any of a number of bonds, for example but not limited to, an amide bond, an ester bond, an ether bond, a carbon-nitrogen bond, a carbon-carbon single double or triple bond, a disulfide bond, or a thioether bond. A linker can have at least one functional group, which can be linked to the binding domain. Non-limiting examples of the functional groups can include those which form an amide bond, an ester bond, an ether bond, a carbonate bond, a carbamate bond, or a thioether bond, such functional groups can be, for example, amino groups; carboxyl groups; aldehyde groups; azide groups; alkyne and alkene groups; ketones; carbonates; carbonyl functionalities bonded to leaving groups such as cyano and succinimidyl and hydroxyl groups.

A Sortase A linker can be created by a Sortase A enzyme fusing an LXPTG recognition motif (SEQ ID NO:237) to an N-terminal GGG motif to regenerate a native amide bond. The linker created can therefore link an antibody attached the LXPTG recognition motif (SEQ ID NO:237) with a TGFβR1 inhibitor attached to the N-terminal GGG motif.

Example 3 Linking Antibody Constructs to TGFbR1 Inhibitors Via a Linker

This example shows different methods of linking an antibody construct to a TGFβR1 inhibitor via a linker to form a conjugate.

A linker, such as a maleimidocaproyl)-(valine-citrulline)-(para-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl) linker or disulfide linker (e.g., formula Id-If) can be first attached to a TGFβR1 inhibitor to form a TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker compound. Subsequently, a TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker is conjugated to an antibody construct.

Alternatively, a linker is attached to an antibody construct, in which the linker is a disulfide linker (e.g., in formula Id-If) or a hydrazone linker to form a linker-antibody construct. Subsequently, a TGFβR1 inhibitor is conjugated to the linker linked with the antibody construct.

Example 4 Lysine-Based Bioconjugation

The antibody construct is exchanged into an appropriate buffer, for example, phosphate, borate, PBS, or Tris-Acetate, at a concentration of about 2 mg/mL to about 10 mg/mL. An appropriate number of equivalents of the TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker are added as a solution with stirring. Under some conditions, lysine-linked conjugates are synthesized starting with 10 mg of antibody construct (mAb) and 10 equivalents of TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker, using sodium phosphate buffer at pH 8 in 20% v/v DMSO. Dependent on the physical properties of the TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker construct, a co-solvent can be introduced prior to the addition of the TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker construct to facilitate solubility. The reaction is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours to about 12 hours depending on the observed reactivity. The progression of the reaction is monitored by LC-MS. Once the reaction is deemed complete, the remaining TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker constructs are removed by applicable methods and the lysine-linked TGFβR1 inhibitor conjugate is exchanged into the desired formulation buffer. Monomer content and drug-antibody ratios are determined by methods described herein.

Example 5 Cysteine-Based Bioconjugation to Interchain Disulfides

The antibody (e.g., 10 mg) is exchanged into an appropriate buffer, for example, phosphate, borate, PBS, or Tris-Acetate, at pH 8, and at a concentration of about 2 mg/mL to about 10 mg/mL in 20% v/v DMSO, with an appropriate number of equivalents of a reducing agent, for example, dithiothreitol or tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine. The resultant solution is stirred for an appropriate amount of time and temperature to effect the desired reduction. The TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker construct (e.g., 7 equiv.) is added as a solution with stirring. Dependent on the physical properties of the TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker construct, a co-solvent is introduced prior to the addition of the TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker construct to facilitate solubility. The reaction is stirred at room temperature for about 1 hour to about 12 hours depending on the observed reactivity. The progression of the reaction is monitored by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Once the reaction is deemed complete, the remaining free immune stimulatory compound-linker construct is removed by applicable methods and the conjugate is exchanged into the desired formulation buffer. Monomer content and drug-antibody ratios can be determined by methods described herein.

Example 6 Conjugation to Engineered/Site-Specific Cysteines

The antibody construct (e.g., 10 mg) is exchanged into an appropriate buffer, for example, phosphate, HEPES, borate, PBS, or Tris-Acetate, at a concentration of about 2 mg/mL to about 10 mg/mL. To the solution is added an appropriate number of equivalents (10 to about 40) of an appropriate reducing agent, for example, dithiothreitol or tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine. The reaction is then incubated at room temperature for about 1 hour to about 12 hours depending on the observed reactivity. The reduced antibody construct is then exchanged into an appropriate buffer, for example, phosphate, HEPES, borate, PBS, or Tris-Acetate, at a concentration of about 2 mg/mL to about 10 mg/mL (for the purposes of removing the previously described reducing agent). To the solution is added an appropriate number of equivalents (10 to about 40) of an appropriate oxidizing agent, for example, dehydroascorbic acid. The reaction is then incubated at room temperature for about 1 hour to about 5 hours depending on the observed reactivity. The TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker construct (e.g., 7 equiv.) is added as a solution with stirring. Dependent on the physical properties of the compound-linker construct, a co-solvent can be introduced prior to the addition of the compound-linker construct to facilitate solubility. The reaction is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours to about 12 hours depending on the observed reactivity. The progression of the reaction is monitored by LC-MS, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, or other appropriate means. Once the reaction is deemed complete, the remaining TGFβR1 inhibitor-linker constructs are removed by applicable methods and the site-specific cysteine-linked conjugate is exchanged into the desired formulation buffer. Monomer content and drug-antibody ratios can be determined by methods described herein and known in the art.

Example 7 Production of Exemplary ASGR1 Antibodies

ASGR1 4A2 Heavy and Light chain DNA was cloned into separate expression vectors for human IgG1 antibody production. The heavy chain vector construct and the light chain vector construct were transiently co-expressed in the ExpiCHO™ system to generate 4A2 IgG1 antibody. The protein from the harvested ExpiCHO™ supernatant was purified to homogeneity using protein A column on GE AKTA Pure™ system and confirmed for purity using analytical HPLC-SEC. If needed, additional purification was performed on a preparative SEC column to remove aggregates. ASGR1 72G9 and 176H4 IgG1 antibodies were created in the same manner. The sequences for the heavy chain and lights chains for the 4A2, 72G9 and 176H4 antibodies are set forth in WO2017/058944, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety and for all purposes.

Additionally, hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for human ASGR1 were prepared from Balb/C mice immunized with ASGR1-AviHis at a service provider using their propriety protocol. Antibody heavy and light chain sequences were obtained, amplified, and cloned. Clone supernatants containing the expressed mAbs were screened for binding to a human ASGR1-IgG1Fc fusion protein, and those with a positive signal as measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were screened for cell binding on HepG2 cells (which express ASGR1). Based on the initial selection criteria, sixteen (16) mAbs were expressed and isolated. The isolated mAbs were further analyzed for the additional characteristics including, for example, titer, low aggregate content following protein A purification, high titer, lack of cross-blocking of ligand GalNac, calcium sensitivity, and cross-reactivity with rat ASGR1 protein. A total of five (5) clones (G2D, K2E, J4F, L4L and H8K) exhibiting strong signals in these assays were humanized and subjected to epitope binning (see Example 2) as compared to known anti-ASGR mAbs 4A2, 72G9 and 4F3 (see, e.g., PCT Publication Nos. WO 2017/058944 and WO 2014/023709), referred to herein as ASGR1 mAb-A, ASGR1 mAb-B, and ASGR1 mAb-C, respectively.

mAb G2D Humanization

For humanization of the G2D VH region (SEQ ID NO:38), the 3 CDR loops as defined by Kabat were grafted into the human germline sequence VH1-03 with JH6 to generate hzG2D VH (SEQ ID NO:43). In addition, several variants of hzG2D VH were constructed to contain one or more mouse back mutations in framework region 1 (FR1), in CDR2, at the junction of framework region 3 (FR3) with CDR2, in FR3, or any combination thereof (see SEQ ID NOS:44-51 and 82-88). Several of the humanized heavy chains were further changed by adding mutations in CDR2, namely N54Q or G55A, to remove a potential deamidation site (see SEQ ID NOS:52-81).

For humanization of the G2D VL region (SEQ ID NO:126) of clones 1-16, 19-21, 26-29, 31, and 33, the 3 CDR loops as defined by Kabat were grafted into the human germline sequence VKI-L1 with JK4 to generate hzG2D VLa (SEQ ID NO:131). In addition, mutations were introduced into humanized light chains at the CDR2/FR3 junction, namely D56S or D56E, to remove a potential isomerization site (see SEQ ID NOS:132-133).

For humanization of the G2D VL region (SEQ ID NO:126) of clones 22, 23, 30, 32, and 34-37, the 3 CDR loops as defined by Kabat were grafted into the human germline sequence VKI-O2 with JK4 to generate hzG2D VLb (SEQ ID NO:247). In addition, a mutation was introduced into humanized light chains at the CDR2/FR3 junction, namely D56S, to remove a potential isomerization site (see SEQ ID NO:248).

For humanization of the G2D VL region (SEQ ID NO:126) of clones 24 and 25, the 3 CDR loops as defined by Kabat were grafted into the human germline sequence VKI-A20 with JK4 to generate hzG2D VLc (SEQ ID NO:249).

Variable heavy region sequences were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and human IgG1 constant region (SEQ ID NO:230), while variable light chain regions were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and a human kappa light chain constant region (SEQ ID NO:232). A total of twenty two humanized heavy chains were paired with six humanized light chains to generate mAbs analyzed for the desirable characteristics noted above.

mAb K2E Humanization

Germline VH1-46 with JH6 was used for CDR grafting the variable heavy chain (SEQ ID NO:39) and germline VKI-L1 with JK2 was used for CDR grafting the variable light chain (SEQ ID NO:127). CDR grafting was done using Kabat defined CDRs to generate hzK2E VH (SEQ ID NO:89) and hzK2E VL (SEQ ID NO:134). Several variants of hzK2E VH (SEQ ID NOS:90-93) and hzK2E VL (SEQ ID NO:135) containing mouse framework back mutations were generated, and the sequences determined using a 3D structural model for potential influence of residues on the CDR structure. In addition, mutations were introduced into humanized light chains at the CDR2/FR3 junction, namely D56E, to remove a potential isomerization site (see SEQ ID NOS:136-137). Variable heavy region sequences were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and IgG1 constant region. Variable light regions were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and kappa constant region.

Five humanized heavy chains were individually paired with each of four different humanized light chains to generate mAbs analyzed for the desirable characteristics noted above (see Table 6). The humanized sequences were further modified by adding an additional mutation in the light chain CDR2/FR3 junction, namely D56E, to remove a potential isomerization site.

mAb L4L Humanization

Germline VH4-31 with JH6 was used for CDR grafting the variable heavy chain (SEQ ID NO:40) and germline VKI-O2 with JK4 were used for CDR grafting the variable light chain (SEQ ID NO: 128). CDR grafting was done using Kabat defined CDRs to generate hzL4L VH (SEQ ID NO: 94) and hzL4L VL (SEQ ID NO:138). Several variants of hzL4L VH (SEQ ID NOS:95-102) containing mouse framework back mutations were generated, and the sequences determined using a 3D structural model for potential influence of residues on the CDR structure. Variable heavy region sequences were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and IgG1 constant region. Variable light regions were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and kappa constant region.

Nine humanized heavy chains were individually co-transfected individually with four different humanized light chains (see Table 7) into the ExpiCHO™ expression system in a 30 mL culture, using the parental chimeric antibody, L4L, as a benchmark. The supernatant containing the antibody was purified and further characterized. Humanized sequences hzL4L-10 through hzL4L-14 were further modified by adding additional mutations in the light chain CDR2/FR3 junction, namely D56S (SEQ ID NO:139), D56E (SEQ ID NO:140) or G57A (SEQ ID NO:141), to remove a potential isomerization site. There was a reduction in percent purity, as measured by analytical size-exclusion chromatography (% protein of interest (POI)), seen with the chimeric and hzL4L-1, -2 and -6. Surprisingly, the G27Y mutation appears to help stabilize the structure, resulting in a more homogenous recovery (see Table 7).

Germline VH with JH6 was used for CDR grafting the variable heavy chain (SEQ ID NO:41) and germlines VL with JK4 were used for CDR grafting the variable light chain (SEQ ID NO: 129). CDR grafting was done using Kabat defined CDRs to generate hzH8K VH (SEQ ID NO: 103) and hzH8K VL (SEQ ID NO: 142). Several variants containing mouse framework back mutations were generated (SEQ ID NOS: 104-112), and the sequences determined using a 3D structural model for potential influence of residues on the CDR structure. Variable heavy region sequences were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and IgG1 constant region. Variable light regions were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and kappa constant region.

Ten humanized heavy chain were individually co-transfected with one humanized light chain into the ExpiCHO™ expression system in a 30 mL culture, using the parental chimeric antibody, H8K, as a benchmark. The supernatant was purified and further characterized as shown in Table 8.

J4F Humanization

Germline VH1-46 with JH6 was used for CDR grafting the variable heavy chain (SEQ ID NO:42) and germline VL with JK4 was used for CDR grafting the variable light chain (SEQ ID NO: 130). CDR grafting was done using Kabat defined CDRs to generate hzJ4F VH (SEQ ID NO: 113) and hzJ4F VL (SEQ ID NO: 143). Several variants containing mouse framework back mutations were generated (SEQ ID NOS: 114-125 for VH and SEQ ID NOS: 144-149 for VL), and the sequences determined using a 3D structural model for potential influence of residues on the CDR structure. Variable heavy region sequences were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and IgG1 constant region. Variable light regions were cloned into a vector containing a signal peptide sequence and kappa constant region.

Thirteen humanized heavy chains were each individually co-transfected with each of seven different humanized light chains into the ExpiCHO™ expression system in a 30 mL culture, using the parental chimeric antibody, J4F, as a benchmark. Humanized variants hzJ4F-1 through hzJ4F-20 showed reduced binding compared to the parent chimeric mAbJ4F (see Table 9). Therefore, additional humanized variable region sequences were designed to screen for hzJ4F heavy chain and light chain combinations (hzJ4F-21-hzJ4F-58) with binding similar to or better than the chimeric parent mAb J4F.

Example 8 Production of Exemplary ASGRI1 Antibodies with Fc Domain Mutations

4A2 Fc variants were generated in similar manner as described in Example 7. The human IgG1 null Fc domain comprised the following mutations: L234A, L235A, G237A, and K322A based on EU numbering. The IgG1 SELF domain comprised the following mutations: S267E and L328F based on EU numbering. The LF variant contained the L328F mutation. Both the IgG1 SELF and LF constructs also contained the K322A mutation to disable CDC function without affecting FcgR binding. The following constructs were generated:

a. 4A2 IgG1 SELF K322A

b. 4A2 IgG1 LF K322A

c. 4A2 IgG1 null

d. 4A2 IgG1 null SELF

e. 4A2 IgG1 null L328F

Example 9 Production of Exemplary Cysteine Engineered ASGR1 Antibodies

Two cysteine engineered variants (4A2 IgG1 A114C-HC and 4A2 IgG1 V205C-LC) were generated and the protein was produced in a similar manner as in Example 8. 4A2 IgG1 A114C-HC contained the Alanine to Cysteine mutation on the heavy chain at position 114 based on EU numbering. 4A2 V205C-LC contained the Valine to Cysteine mutation on the light chain at position 205. Binding data confirmed that the mutation on the Fc variants and the cysteine engineered variants does not impact binding to ASGR1.

Example 10 Characterization of Cysteine Engineered ASGR1 4A2 Exemplary Antibodies Using ELISA FcgR Binding Assay

ELISA plates were coated with 50 ul of various recombinant Fcg receptors (human and Marmota) at 0.1 ug/ml diluted in 1×PBS. Following overnight incubation, the plates were washed with the wash buffer (1×PBS+0.05% Tween 20), blocked with the blocking buffer (1% nonfat milk in PBS) and incubated for 1 hour at room temperature. The ELISA plates were then washed with the wash buffer and ASGR1 test samples (naked mAb or cysteine engineered Ab) were added from a concentration of 100 ug/ml diluted 3 fold. The plates were then incubated for 1 hour at room temperature and washed again 3× with wash buffer. 100 ul of the HRP goat anti-human Fc antibody diluted 1:1000 fold was next added into each well and incubated for another hour. The plates were washed 4× with the wash buffer. 50 ul of the TMB ELISA substrate was next added for color development and the reaction stopped by adding 50 ul of 2M sulfuric acid. The plates were then read on a plate reader at 450 nm wavelength.

When 4A2 IgG1 and the cysteine engineered variants were compared across different Human and Marmota Fcg receptors (Human FcgR2a, Human FcgR2b, Marmota FcgR1, Marmota FcgR2b, and Marmota FcgR3a), the binding affinities were all similar indicating that the cysteine mutation introduced for the cysteine engineered variants does not affect FcgR binding.

Example 11 Characterization of ASGR1 4A2 Conjugates Binding to Human FcgR1 Receptors

4A2 IgG1 and conjugates are analyzed for human FcγR1 interaction analysis using an Octet Red 96m instrument. The antibody or conjugates are immobilized on anti-human Fc biosensors and incubated with varying concentration of monomeric FcγR1 ranging from 1.2 nM to 1 μM in PBS. The experiments are performed using five steps: (1) baseline acquisition (60 s); (2) antibody or conjugate loading onto anti-human Fc biosensor (120 s); (3) second baseline acquisition (60 s); (4) association of interacting protein for kon measurement (120 s); and (5) dissociation of interacting FcγR1 for koff measurement (300 s). The interacting monomeric FcγR1 is used at 5-6 concentrations of a 3-fold concentration series. The data are analyzed using Octet Data Analysis Software 9.0 (ForteBio)™ and fit to the 1:1 binding model. Equilibrium dissociation constants (KD) are calculated by the ratio of kon to koff.

Example 12 Determination of Molar Ratio

Method A. This example illustrates one method by which the molar ratio is determined. One microgram of conjugate is injected into an LC/MS such as an Agilent 6550 iFunnel Q-TOF equipped with an Agilent Dual Jet Stream ESI source coupled with Agilent 1290 Infinity UHPLC system. Raw data is obtained and is deconvoluted with software such as Agilent MassHunter Qualitative Analysis Software with BioConfirm using the Maximum Entropy deconvolution algorithm. The average mass of intact conjugates is calculated by the software, which can use top peak height at 25% for the calculation. This data is then imported into another program to calculate the molar ratio of the TGFβR1 inhibitor:conjugate, such as Agilent molar ratio calculator.

Method B. Another method for determination of molar ratio is as follows. First, 10 μL of a 5 mg/mL solution of a conjugate is injected into an HPLC system set-up with a TOSOH TSKgel Butyl-NPR™ hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) column (2.5 μM particle size, 4.6 mm×35 mm) attached. Then, over the course of 18 minutes, a method is run in which the mobile phase gradient is run from 100% mobile phase A to 100% mobile phase B over the course of 12 minutes, followed by a six minute re-equilibration at 100% mobile phase A. The flow rate is 0.8 mL/min and the detector is set at 280 nM. Mobile phase A is 1.5 M ammonium sulfate, 25 mM sodium phosphate (pH 7). Mobile phase B is 25% isopropanol in 25 mM sodium phosphate (pH 7). Post-run, the chromatogram is integrated and the molar ratio is determined by summing the weighted peak area.

Example 13 General Process for Identifying Liver-Specific Antigens

A compendium of normal tissue expression data, for example an RNA-Seq transcriptomic database such as GTEx, is used to create segregated sets of samples by tissue type. This database is then partitioned into test (tissues with desired expression) and control (tissues with undesired expression) subsets, in this case liver versus all other tissues, and an analysis of variance test such as the Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance is performed to identify genes that are significantly differentially expressed between the two sample sets. Because the resulting list of genes may include examples which while over-expressed in the test group when compared to the normal group as a whole may still have higher expression in individual tissue types than desired, a second filtering step is applied wherein those genes whose average tissue-specific expression for any specific tissue in the control tissue set is above a desired cutoff are removed from further analysis. If desired, a further filtering step can be applied to sort and restrict genes returned based on absolute minimum average expression in the test set, absolute maximum average expression in the control set and/or the ratio of the test-to-control expression. From this resulting list, a final filtering step is performed as desired to include or exclude genes based on the cellular localization of the protein product. For example, it may be desired to include only proteins expressed on the cell surface, or of those single-pass surface proteins. When selecting the final list, additional consideration is also given to expression patterns of the antigen in one or more specific diseases, or in liver cell subsets. For example, in the case of liver cell subsets the expression of the antigen in question would be compared in available liver cell subsets (such as hepatocytes, Kupffer cells, or hepatic stellate cells) and antigens removed, retained, or prioritized in consideration depending on these expression patterns. Where possible, protein-level confirmation of expression of candidate genes is performed by examining available immunohistochemistry data such as that found in the Human Protein Atlas.

Example 14 Determination of Kd Values

Kd is measured using surface plasmon resonance assays using a BIACORE®-2000 or a BIACORE®-3000 (BIAcore, Inc., Piscataway, N.J.) at 25° C. with immobilized antigen CM5 chips at ˜10 response units (RU). Briefly, carboxymethylated dextran biosensor chips (CM5, BIACORE, Inc.) are activated with N-ethyl-N′-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) according to the supplier's instructions. Antigen is diluted with 10 mM sodium acetate, pH 4.8, to 5 μg/mL (˜0.2 μM) before injection at a flow rate of 5 μL/minute to achieve approximately 10 response units (RU) of coupled protein. Following the injection of antigen, 1 M ethanolamine is injected to block unreacted groups. For kinetics measurements, two-fold serial dilutions of Fab or conjugate (0.78 nM to 500 nM) are injected in PBS with 0.05% polysorbate 20 (TWEEN-20™) surfactant (PBST) at 25° C. at a flow rate of approximately 25 L/min. Association rates (kon) and dissociation rates (koff) are calculated using a simple one-to-one Langmuir binding model (BIACORE® Evaluation Software version 3.2) by simultaneously fitting the association and dissociation sensorgrams. The equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) is calculated as the ratio koff/kon. See, e.g., Chen et al., J. Mol. Biol. 293:865-881 (1999). If the on-rate exceeds 106 M-1 s-1 by the surface plasmon resonance assay above, then the on-rate can be determined by using a fluorescent quenching technique that measures the increase or decrease in fluorescence emission intensity (excitation=295 nm; emission=340 nm, 16 nm band-pass) at 25° C. of a 20 nM anti-antigen antibody (Fab form or conjugate form) in PBS, pH 7.2, in the presence of increasing concentrations of antigen as measured in a spectrometer, such as a stop-flow equipped spectrophometer (Aviv Instruments) or a 8000-series SLM-AMINCO™ spectrophotometer (ThermoSpectronic) with a stirred cuvette.

Example 15 Effect of Anti-ASGR1-ALK5 Inhibitor Conjugates on TGFb Production

Anti-ASGR1 antibodies conjugated to an ALK5 inhibitor were tested via a cell reporter assay. Briefly, HEK293 SBE-LUC reporter cells transfected to stably express full length human ASGR1 were seeded in 96 well plates at 40,000 cells/well in an assay media of minimum essential media containing 0.5% fetal bovine serum, 1% nonessential amino acids, 1% sodium pyruvate and 1% Pen/Strep. Anti-ASGR1-ALK5 inhibitor conjugates and controls were added to wells in a dose titration ranging from 5 μM to 0.064 nM to HEK293 SBE-LUC and ASGR1-HEK293 SBE-LUC cells. After incubating for 6 hours at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 environment, human TGFβ 1 (PeproTech Inc.) was added to a final concentration of 1.6 ng/ml followed by an additional 18 hour incubation under the same conditions. Luciferase STEADY-GLO® reagent (Promega Corporation) was added at 70 μl/well and incubated with shaking for 10 minutes. Luciferase activity was determined by measuring luminescence with an ENVISION® Plate Reader (Perkin-Elmer Inc.). Data were fit with a four-parameter non-linear regression to calculate IC50 values using Prism Software v7.04 (GraphPad Inc.).

Table 10 shows that each of the anti-ASGR1-ALK5 inhibitor conjugates could efficiently inhibit TGFβ1-mediated luciferase expression as compared to an unconjugated anti-ASGR antibody (mAb-A) alone. Furthermore, the ASGR-ALK5 inhibitor conjugates were more potent than the ALK5 inhibitor (Compound 60) alone.

Example 16 TGFβ Reporter Assay

TGFβ/SMAD Signaling Pathway SBE reporter cell line was obtained from BPS Bioscience. Cells are passed, expanded, and stored in liquid nitrogen as per the supplier's instructions with the exception that growth media is changed to DMEM-C with Geneticin (DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 1×NEAA, 1 mM Pyruvate, 2 mM glutamine, 50 μg/mL penicillin, 50 U/mL streptomycin and 400 μg/mL of Geneticin). The assay media is MEM supplemented with 0.5% fetal bovine serum, 1×NEAA, 1 mM Pyruvate, 50 μg/mL penicillin and 50 U/mL streptomycin.

Compounds are assayed to measure their activity as ALK5 inhibitors.

Enzyme Inhibition Assay

ALK5 enzyme inhibition assays were performed by Reaction Biology Corp (Malvern, Pa.). 1 mg/mL of peptide substrate (casein) and 10 uM ATP were prepared in a mixture of fresh reaction buffer. The kinase was delivered into the substrate solution which was gently mixed. Compounds in 100% DMSO were added to the kinase reaction mixture by Acoustic technology (Echo550; nanoliter range) and the mixture was incubated for 20 min at room temperature. 33P-ATP (Specific activity 10 uCi/uL) was added into the reaction mixture to initiate the reaction and the reaction mixture was incubated for 2 hours at room temperature.

TGFb Reporter Assay

The HEK293 SBE-LUC reporter cells from Example 15 were grown in DMEM-C with Geneticin (DMEM supplemented with 0% fetal bovine serum, 1×NEAA, 1 mM Pyruvate, 2 mM glutamine, 50 μg/mL penicillin, 50 U/mL streptomycin and 400 ug/mL of Geneticin). The assay media was MEM supplemented with 0.5% fetal bovine serum, 1×NEAA, 1 mM Pyruvate, 50 μg/mL penicillin and 50 U/mL streptomycin.

The HEK293 SBE-LUC reporter cells were harvested from the tissue culture flasks by incubation in small quantity of Versene at room temperature for three to five minutes after the media in the flask is removed and cells rinsed with PBS. Cells were counted and diluted in the assay media at ˜0.8×106 cells/mL then 50 uL/well were added to 96-well assay plate. Test samples (at desired concentrations diluted in assay media) were added to assay plate containing the 50 uL/well of cells (or media only), 50 uL per well, and incubated for 5-6 hours at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator. After that time, 15 uL of TGFb diluted to 12.5 ng/mL in the assay media was added to the plate. Controls included TGFb titration (from 25 to 0 ng/mL) without inhibitors, and media only (without cells, inhibitor or TGFb). Plates were incubated at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator for 18h. Luciferase substrate solution was subsequently added at 75 uL per well, incubated in dark with shaking at room temperature for 10 min, and luminescence was measured using a luminometer. Results are shown in Table 13.

Example 17 Epitope Binning of Anti-ASGR1 Antibodies to Human ASGR1 Extracellular Domain

This example shows that antibodies of this disclosure raised against human ASGR1 extracellular domain (ECD) bind to several different epitopes as tested by simultaneous binding with control anti-ASGR1 antibodies ASGR1 mAb-A, ASGR1 mAb-B, and ASGR1 mAb-C. Chimeric antibodies were chG2D (heavy chain SEQ ID NO:150; light chain SEQ ID NO:206), chH8K (heavy chain SEQ ID NO:153; light chain SEQ ID NO:209), chJ4F (heavy chain SEQ ID NO:154; light chain SEQ ID NO:210), chK2E (heavy chain SEQ ID NO:151; light chain SEQ ID NO:207), chL4L (heavy chain SEQ ID NO:152; light chain SEQ ID NO:208), and their corresponding parental antibodies were G2D, H8K, J4F, K2E, and L4L, were analyzed.

Antibody epitope binning experiment utilizing OCTET® (ForteBio, Inc.) kinetic analysis (observing competitive versus simultaneous binding to human ASGR1 ECD) revealed a competitive blocking profile of four (4) different epitope bins, referred to as bins A, B, C, and D (see Table 14). Briefly, human Fc-fused ASGR1 ECD was immobilized on anti-human IgG Fc Capture (AHC) biosensors and incubated with mouse IgG2a isotype control antibodies ASGR1 mAb-A, ASGR1 mAb-B, and ASGR1 mAb-C until saturation was reached in kinetics buffer (PBS+1% BSA+0.2% Tween20+0.9 mM CaCl2) at pH 7.4), followed by binding of anti-ASGR1 antibodies G2D, H8K, J4F, K2E, and L4L of this disclosure. Recombinant chG2D, chH8K, chJ4F, chK2E, and chL4L antibodies were tested using mouse Fc-fused ASGR1 ECD immobilized on anti-mouse IgG Fc Capture (AMC) biosensors and incubated with control human IgG1 isotype antibodies ASGR1 mAb-A, ASGR1 mAb-C, and ASGR1 mAb-C. The interactions of the anti-ASGR1 antibodies of this disclosure and control mAbs with human ASGR1 ECD were analyzed using the OCTET® Data Analysis Software 9.0 (ForteBio).

Unexpectedly, anti-ASGR1 antibodies H8K and L4L of this disclosure were observed to bind in the presence of all 3 control mAbs and, therefore, were determined to belong to a unique epitope bin. Antibodies H8K and L4L belong to the same bin because they were found to block binding of each other, denoted bin D in Table 14 below. The other three antibodies of this disclosure (G2D, J4F, and K2E) binned with control antibody ASGR1 mAb-B.

If test antibody bound in presence of control antibody, test antibody is assigned (+).

Additional epitope binning was performed using chimeric antibodies chG2D, chJ4F, and chL4L. The procedure outlined above was essentially repeated with the following exceptions: OCTET® biosensor was AMC, antigen reagent used was mouse Fc-fused human ASGR1 and control antibodies contained human IgG1 backbone. Data was in consistent with the data in Table 14 above.

Example 18 Binding of Anti-ASGR1 Antibodies to an ASGR1-Expressing Tumor Cell Line

FIGS. 1A-1D show binding of various anti-ASGR1 antibodies to ASGR1-expressing cell line HepG2. Briefly, 5×104 HepG2 cells/well were contacted with titrating concentrations of anti-ASGR1 antibodies in FACS Buffer (FB: PBS+2% FBS+1 mM CaCl2)) for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were washed twice in FB, then incubated in anti-human IgG PE secondary for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were washed twice in FB, then analyzed by flow cytometry. FIGS. 1A-1C show the binding of mouse anti-ASGR1 antibodies L4L, H8K, J4F, K2E, or G2D and examined for binding as compared to control antibodies ASGR1-mAb-A, ASGR1-mAb-B, and ASGR1-mAb-C (FIG. 1A), or ASGR1-mAb-A and ASGR1-mAb-B (FIGS. 1B and 1C). Each of the test mouse anti-ASGR1 antibodies bound at a level similar to the control anti-ASGR1 antibodies. FIG. 1D shows binding of humanized anti-ASGR1 antibodies hzL4L-7 and hzL4L-14 as compared to parent mouse anti-ASGR1 antibody L4L, and binding of humanized anti-ASGR1 antibodies hzH8K-1 and hzH8K-10 as compared to parent mouse anti-ASGR1 antibody H8K. Each of the humanized anti-ASGR1 antibodies bound to the ASGR1-expressing cell line HepG2 as well as or better than the parent mouse antibodies. No binding was detected in ASGR1 negative cell line HEK293 (data not shown).

Example 19 Cross-Reactivity of Anti-Human ASGR1 Mabs to Cynomolgus macaque and Rat ASGR1

Anti-human ASGR1 antibodies of this disclosure were examined for cross-reactivity with Cynomolgus macaque and rat ASGR1. Briefly, sequence encoding Cynomolgus macaque or rat ASGR1 was transiently transfected into CHO-S cells. Transfected cells were before performing cell binding assay. A total of about 1.5×104 transfected cells/well were added to 96-well V-bottom assay plate, incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 48-72 hours, and then washed with culture medium before adding 100 μl of each ASGR1 antibody at different concentrations starting from 100 nM and 3-fold dilutions to a total of eight wells. The cells with antibody were incubated for 40 minutes at 4° C., then washed three times with 200 μl of fresh culture medium. To each well was added 50 μl PE conjugated goat anti-human Fc (SouthernBiotech) at 1:200 dilution in culture medium and then incubated at 4° C. for 20 minutes. After washing the plate once, the treated cells were resuspended in 200 μl culture medium and then the stained cells were analyzed on GUAVA® using Incyte software. Table 15 (see also FIG. 2B) shows that all of the anti-ASGR1 antibodies of this disclosure cross-react with Cynomolgus macaque ASGR1, whereas Table 16 (see also FIG. 2A) shows that only antibodies G2D, K2E, and J4F were capable of binding rat ASGR1 (mAbs H8K-1 and L4L-7 were not rat cross-reactive (data not shown)).

Example 20 Cross-Reactivity of Anti-ASGR1 Antibodies to Rat CLEC10A

Anti-human ASGR1 antibodies of this disclosure were examined for cross-reactivity with Cynomolgus macaque and rat ASGR1. Briefly, sequence encoding Cynomolgus macaque or rat ASGR1 was transiently transfected into CHO-S cells. Transfected cells were before performing cell binding assay. A total of about 1.5×104 transfected cells/well were added to 96-well V-bottom assay plate, incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 48-72 hours, and then washed with culture medium before adding 100 μl of each ASGR1 antibody at different concentrations starting from 100 nM and 3-fold dilutions to a total of eight wells. The cells with antibody were incubated for 40 minutes at 4° C., then washed three times with 200 μl of fresh culture medium. To each well was added 50 μl PE conjugated goat anti-human Fc (SouthemBiotech) at 1:200 dilution in culture medium and then incubated at 4° C. for 20 minutes. After washing the plate once, the treated cells were resuspended in 200 μl culture medium and then the stained cells were analyzed on GUAVA® using Incyte software. Table 17 (see also FIG. 2B) shows that all of the anti-ASGR1 antibodies of this disclosure cross-react with Cynomolgus macaque ASGR1, whereas Table 18 (see also FIG. 2A) shows that only antibodies G2D, K2E, and J4F were capable of binding rat ASGR1 (mAbs H8K-1 and L4L-7 were not rat cross-reactive (data not shown)).

Example 21 Certain Anti-Human ASGR1 Antibodies Compete with ASGR1 Ligand (GalNac) Binding

The F(ab′)2 fragments of ASGR1 antibodies were tested for GalNac ligand blocking using competition cell binding with human ASGR1 full length DNA transiently transfected CHO-S cells. GalNac ligand was linked to a human IgG1 Fc tail (referred to herein as GalNac-hFc). Competitive cell binding method was carried out as follows: (1) transfer 200 μl human ASGR1 expressing CHO-S cells (100 k/well) into a V-bottom 96-well assay plate and the cells were washed once, harvested, and resuspended in cell culture medium; (2) resuspended cells were incubated with 100 GalNac-hFc starting with 900 nM, diluted 1:2 for a total of 8 concentrations in medium containing 200 nM F(ab′)2 fragments of ASGR1 antibodies, and incubated for 40 minutes at 4° C.; (3) the treated cells were washed three times, resuspended with 50 of medium containing commercial PE conjugated anti-human Fc (SouthernBiotech) as secondary antibody (1:200 dilution), and incubates for 20 minutes at 4° C.; and (4) finally the plates were washed twice and the samples were analyzed on a GUAVA® EASYCYTE™ 8HT flow cytometer. The percent of GalNac-hFc (at a 33 nM concentration) blocked from binding ASGR1 due to the presence of anti-ASGR1 antibody was measured.

Table 19 (below) shows that even though antibodies G2D and K2E epitope binned with control ASGR1 mAb-B (having CDRs from anti-ASGR1 antibody 72G9), they differ from ASGR1 mAb-B because G2D does not compete with ASGR1 ligand (GalNac) binding and K2E only minimally blocks GalNac binding. In this regard, G2D and K2E are more like control ASGR1 mAb-C (having CDRs from anti-ASGR1 antibody 4F3). In contrast, the antibodies showing a unique epitope bin, H8K and L4L, strongly block GalNac binding to ASGR1.

Example 22 Effect of Calcium on Anti-ASGR1 Binding to ASGR1

The ability of anti-human ASGR1 antibodies of this disclosure to bind to human ASGR1 in the presence or absence of calcium in binding buffer was examined. Briefly, ASGR1 antibodies were bound to immobilized human ASGR1 extracellular domain (ECD) at saturating levels and subsequently dissociated under three different conditions as follows: (a) binding and dissociation with buffer containing calcium (PBS+1% BSA+0.2% Tween20+0.9 mM CaCl2), pH 7.4); (b) binding with buffer containing calcium and dissociation with buffer lacking calcium; and (c) binding and dissociation with buffer lacking calcium. Analysis of ASGR1 antibody binding to human ASGR1 ECD was performed using the OCTET® Red 96 instrument and analyzed using the OCTET®Data Analysis Software 9.0 (ForteBio). His-tagged human ASGR1 ECD was immobilized to OCTET® Penta-His biosensors and ASGR1 antibodies were subjected to avidity binding under the conditions described above. Association with the ASGR1 ECD was measured by the rate of and increase in magnitude of signal response at a given antibody concentration. Dissociation from the ASGR1 ECD was measured the rate of loss in signal upon removal of the antibody and further incubation with or without Ca2+. Tested in these assays were chimeric anti-ASGR1 antibodies chG2D, chJ4F, chK2E, and chL4L of this disclosure (each comprising the variable regions of anti-ASGR1 antibodies G2D, J4F, K2E, and L4L, respectively, of this disclosure fused to human IgG1 Fc domain). Also tested were humanized antibodies hzH8K-1 and hzL4L-7. Control antibodies were ASGR1 mAb-A, ASGR1 mAb-B, and ASGR1 mAb-C.

Tested mAbs were considered sensitive to calcium when saturation binding of ASGR1 mAb to human ASGR1 ECD in the presence of calcium showed a difference in binding signal after dissociation in the presence of calcium that was >±10% as compared to the binding signal after dissociation in the absence of calcium (i.e., calcium sensitivity refers to antibodies that appear to require Ca2+ to remain bound to ASGR1 ECD). Antibodies lacking sensitivity to calcium included chG2D, chH8K, chK2E, hzL4L-7, and control antibodies ASGR1 mAb-A and ASGR1 mAb-B. In contrast, chJ4F showed calcium sensitivity since this antibody exhibited a binding signal decrease of 67% from saturation when dissociation was carried out in the absence of calcium, whereas only 10% of binding signal loss was observed when the dissociation step was carried out in the presence of calcium. Control antibody ASGR1 mAb-C shows a dramatic loss in binding signal when dissociation is carried out in the presence (73% loss) or absence (93% loss) of calcium during the dissociation step. The binding dissociation by control antibody ASGR1 mAb-C appears to be affected by calcium, but its binding profile has a unique response to calcium since its association to ligand is not affected by calcium.

Further analysis of the antibodies of this disclosure was to determine whether the presence of calcium was needed for binding (i.e., during association) of the antibodies to human ASGR1 ECD. Under these conditions, several antibodies displayed the complete inability to bind to human ASGR1 ECD (i.e., calcium dependent binding). Table 20 provides a summary of the calcium sensitivity results.
